Kicked due to extreme lag

[Rhodri2311]

Ok I've had about enough of this - I've been kicked out of loads of games now and I fail to see why. How can I tell if I am really lagging?

I play generally 3vs3s with all settings set to medium my specs are:

Athlon XP 2600+ OC'd to 2.4ghz
2GB 2700DDR RAM
6600GT OC'd
1MB Broadband from TalkTalk
D-Link 300T ADSL Modem

Any ideas? I'm at my wits end here :grumble:

Thanks for trying anything else it could be? (I don't even know if it's me lagging but I've been kicked out of about 5games in a row now :werd: )

Do you have any software firewalls or virus scanners running? If so, try shutting them down.

[Rhodri2311]

Yeah I run AVG and ZoneAlarm but I always shut them down before playing any online game.

[TBS]

hmm, lets see a warnings.log from after a lag kick.

[Rhodri2311]

There we go!

[TBS]

hmm, nothing informative there...all that really remains is actual network problems - if your network is wireless does it get a good signal? Do you get a good connection - plenty of bandwidth, low ping etc?

[Rhodri2311]

Not on wireless yet (ment to be setting it up at some point but to lazy right now), and pingwise I average out at about 30-40 on a 22 man CounterStrike: Source server.

ok, theres no reason I can see for you being kicked for "extreme lag" - maybe someone else can think of something.

[the_almighty_moo]

I dont want to seem an idiot, but isnt it just gamespy being poo like usual?

[TBS]

the game is peer to peer - when you're in and playing the gamespy servers could be hit by a bomb and the game would continue.

[the_almighty_moo]

you learn something new every day dont you? :D

well if my p2p know how is up to scratch, im guessing that if the other players arent reciveing data from you (i dont know why, im not a brainbox) then you will be kicked.

thats like iMesh (dont start), if one isnt sending you data, they get disconnected from everyone else.

Well cheers for trying anyway guys - think I'll call it a night for now as I can't come up with any cause tbh but if anyone has any idea please help me!!

Night guys,

Rhodri.
